Clippers vs. Wizards Game Info

Los Angeles Clippers (24-13, 12-7 Away) vs. Washington Wizards (13-20, 6-10 Home)
Date: Thursday, March 4, 2021
Time: 7 p.m. EST
Venue: Capital One Arena — Washington D.C.

The Clippers enter this game fresh off back-to-back losses. They haven’t strung together wins since mid-February. Kawhi Leonard was a last-minute scratch in their last game, citing back spasms as the issue. He is currently considered questionable to play in the game today. Paul George stepped up in his absence, scoring 32 points. However, he was a modest 12-for-26 from the floor, and it clearly wasn’t enough to win the game. Returning back to the lineup tonight would be huge for Los Angeles.

While Washington has lost two games in a row, they have been better recently overall. Prior to these back-to-back losses, the Wizards won seven of their previous eight games. They were scoring with ease, and it looked like they were beginning to turn a corner. However, Russell Westbrook and Bradley Beal essentially do everything for this team. If the Clippers are able to shut either won of them down, it would be tough for Washington to win.
